Verizon Lowers Prices Of The Palm Pre Plus And Pixi Plus

Bargain shoppers will probably want to take note that Verizon Wireless has lowered the contract pricing of the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus to $50 and $30, respectively. This is a nice price reduction, considering that those devices were going for $150 and $100 after rebates about two months back. Despite the price drop, the $Pre Plus at Walmart is still slightly cheaper, since it’s going for free. These price reductions might indicate that Palm is under pressure to let go of its inventory of phones, amidst reports that the company overestimated demand, leaving several thousands of unsold devices. The popularity of Google’s Android devices and Apple’s iPhone certainly isn’t helping Palm’s case either.
